Not sure if this has officially started, but I have the itch... and a class that ends at 6:30... So I'll be in front of the SWAT office this Tuesday night. Any other takers?

I suppose if I remember, I'll drop by as well. Which reminds me: I want to organize a time that the less casual players of magic can have to play long drawn out 5-6 man Commander games. If anyone would like to play Commander, please tell me (I suppose in this thread since it's relevant) and I'll try to set one up.

yes EDH became Commander once Wizards recognized it as a widely popular format and started printing cards specifically for it. They renamed it Commander because it fits the coin a little better than Elder Dragon Highlander which most newer players wouldn't be able to understand.
Trivia: EDH or Elder Dragon Highlander was named as such due to the fact that your commander was supposed to be one of the legendary Elder Dragons when the format first came into existence. The Highlander part comes from the fact that you're only supposed to have 1 of each card in the deck, a la "There will be only one" line in the Highlander movie which I suppose also lends itself well to the epicness of the Commanders fighting

In any case, I have three EHD decks, one of them maybe good, so I could be up for this.

Umm okay urgent message (not really but time is of the essence) We (John and I) are planning to be at the usual Magic place in front of SWHAT to play Magic all day, if you want to come Nygil, that'd make it a lot more fun. Also if anyone who has access to the Nerd Club mailing list, can you please send out an e-mail to members saying that we'll be having an all-day Magic tomorrow in front of SWHAT? You can pass it off as like a sort of Magic branch "preview" but really we just have no classes tomorrow and want to play Magic  We will be there around 1 o clock. If you don't see us there just stick around and hopefully some people will show up if we come across any unexpected delays P.S. If anyone want to come but does not have a Commander deck, we won't be playing just Commander, however if you would like to play Commander, I have 8 decks that I'm willing to lend to people (but not all at once please. I'm not that trusting :3) |

Second floor of SC is fairly busy. Quite a few tables free, but seating is another problem...
